DID YOU KNOW?
By the time you finish reading this article, 15-20 children will have been abused, beaten or molested. In the next five minutes, 30 more. Within the next hour, 360 more. And by tonight, close to 8,000+ children will have suffered from abuse, 5 of which will die. Child abuse has increased 134% since 1980 and is now considered a worldwide epidemic. The high jump in child abuse deaths and the shocking increase in statistics highlights the frightening lack of public knowledge. See something?--Say something!! If you suspect child abuse, report it. Protect our children. It's our moral duty.
Educate Yourself--Learn the Facts--It may Just Save a Child's Life!!
